Chapter 434 Hero Cummings
Chapter 434 Hero Cummings
The three consecutive games are at home, which is also Gentry's confidence to let Kobe rest four people in rotation.
Game [-] against the Bulls.
The third game was against the Knicks at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
After Wei Guo left the team, the Knicks fell into a slump and were at the bottom of the league last season.
so...
As long as they can win the second game, there will be no pressure in the third game. When Kobe and the four return, the Lakers will continue their winning streak. Kobe and the four went to Hawaii. Only Wei Guo and Gentry know about this.
When mentioning the Bulls, the first thing that comes to mind is the Bulls dynasty in the 90s. Under the leadership of Jordan, the Bulls dominated the 8s with 6 championships in 90 years.
Since then...the Bulls have gone downhill as well.
This season, the Bulls are not weak. After the transfer of Da Ben, the Bulls have Da Ben and Luol Deng on the inside...Gordon, Gooden, Hinrich on the outside...the bench also has something like Noah If not, Kobe would not ask the team to trade him to the Bulls.
......
Starting lineup for this game:
Lakers: Farmar, Vujacic, Wei Guo, Ariza, Bynum
Bulls: Hinrich, Gooden, Gordon, Luol Deng, Big Ben
......
When warming up before the game, Da Ben threw two balls casually and ran to chat with Wei Guo.
Anyway, Big Ben doesn't need to look for any feel.
Wei Guo snatched several best defensive players from Daben. It can be said that he is the player Daben hates the most. Now Daben's state has begun to decline.
The two are old rivals...
They played many times in the playoffs. Daben defended all the insiders in the league, but suffered a lot from Wei Guo. When talking about being dunked by Wei Guo for the first time, Daben joked that he would have avoided it if he knew it. The unfavorable start caused him to be blown up by Weiguo once.
Young players like Hinrich and Gordon are full of admiration for Wei Guo.
When they were young, their idols might be Jordan, Johnson, and Iverson... Now their idol is only one person, and that is Wei Guo, because before they entered the league, Wei Guo was the most valuable player in the regular season. After three years, Wei Guo is still the most valuable player in the regular season.
Worship is worship!
They still want to...defeat Wei.
The game began immediately, and Big Ben and Bynum stood in the middle circle, ready to jump the ball.
"Beep!!!"
The whistle sounded and the game began.
Bynum gave the racket to Farmar, Farmar dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, Wei Guo got rid of Gordon's defense, and caught the ball from outside the three-point line!
"Shh!!!"
Basketball hit the net.
Wei Guo shot too fast, and Gordon had no time to defend. He watched the basketball draw a beautiful arc in the air and finally fell into the basket.
The Bulls changed their head coach after playing less than ten games this season. The current head coach is Pete, who is not a well-known head coach, and his coaching ability is mediocre. Take a break, and when they come to Los Angeles, they will see that Kobe is warming up.
Anyway...
A little petty.
The coaching ability is not very strong. The Bulls lineup, which ranks last in the Eastern Conference, is the best proof.
Bulls attack!
Hinrich lobs to Luol Deng, who singles Ariza, turns around and shoots!
"Shh!!!"
Basketball hit the net.
This ball was played very simply. Luol Deng is the second scorer of the Bulls, and Gordon is the first scorer. The average number of shots per game between the two is the same. The outside shot, just because of the Lakers' defensive position, the Bulls' outside line was pegged by Wei Guo!
Gentry guessed the Bulls would play this way.
but...
Gentry has confidence in Bynum, and Ariza is there to help defend. There is no problem dealing with the Bulls inside. After all, there is someone inside the Bulls who can be let go directly. No place, there is no need to arrange a player to defend.
make a hypothesis...
Give Big Ben a shot, even if Big Ben made 10 of 10 mid-range shots, Gentry still wouldn't let the players guard him on the 11th goal.
This is the experience summed up from many years of playing against Daben. Daben's role is to defend. He has no achievements in offense. Don't look at Daben's average of seven or eight points per game. These points mainly come from the second attack at the basket. Among other things, Big Ben's ability to grab rebounds is still second to none in the entire league.
......
At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers led by 3 points.
Not too much difference...
The Bulls can also be regarded as a team without too many shortcomings in offense and defense. Luol Deng scored 9 points in the first quarter and is the Bulls' highest scoring player.
"I didn't defend well and let Hughes make two threes."
Turiaf wanted to slap himself twice. In the last minute, he let Hughes make two consecutive three-pointers, which led to the Lakers leading by only 1 points.
"Do not blame you..."
Gentry patted Turiaf, "Hinrich broke through and scored, you were right to defend."
When Hughes was replaced in the last minute, everyone thought he was just wasting time and let Gordon rest. Whoever wanted to shoot was so decisive, and two consecutive three-pointers also annoyed Turiaf.
Cummings is having fun!
Turiaf snorted, "Brother, help me get the place back."
"what???"
Cummings was stunned, "Shouldn't we ask Brother Wei for this matter?"
"Brother Wei is so busy. He has to defend and attack at the same time. I'll find you..."
As he talked, Turiaf began to act like a baby. Can you imagine what it would be like for a strong man who is close to two meters to act like a baby?No one can parry... Cummings up!
......
At the beginning of the second quarter, Cummings, the six-time champion, came on the stage.
Pete took a look, shrugged and said, "He is Cummings, the legendary six-time champion? It's nothing special..."
Bulls attack!
Gooden singles Cummings, breaks through and makes an emergency stop shot!
"Shh!!!"
Basketball hit the net.
27:26! ! !
The Bulls were only 1 point behind.
Cummings' defensive ability is worse than Nash's. Cummings directly ignored Gooden's provocation after scoring a goal...I don't know how to defend.
Lakers attack!
Cummings moved like a ghost, and before the bottom corner, he opened his arms and was ready to catch the ball.
Wei Guo broke through with the ball, passed the ball behind his back, and with a whoosh, the basketball was in the hands of Cummings. When Cummings caught the ball, his toes just fell outside the three-point line.
"Shh!!!"
Basketball hollow into the net.
Catch...shoot...into the basket!
Action in one go...
There are only three words to describe the cooperation between Wei Guo and Cummings: picturesque.
